Gurugram stretch of Dwarka Expressway to be ready by 2023

19 Aug 2022 CW Team

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has stepped up efforts to complete work on the Gurugram portion of the Dwarka Expressway so as to launch the 19 km road stretch in 2023.

The project is on track and is expected to be completed by December 2022, considering that finishing touches such as installing signboards and painting can be carried even after the expressway is opened.

The 29 km expressway is estimated to cost Rs 90 billion. It is meant to be the Northern Ring Road connecting Delhi and Gurugram, an alternative to NH-48. It will run between Shiv Murti in Delhi and Kherki Daula in Gurugram. The 18.9 km-section of the expressway in Gurugram is set to be launched, but the remaining portion in Delhi will only be ready by mid-2023.

The intersection, with a radius of two km, will have four loops that will allow seamless movement towards Delhi-Gurugram expressway, Southern Peripheral Road (SPR), Central Peripheral Road (CPR), and the under-construction Delhi-Mumbai expressway.

The cloverleaf was supposed to be finished by October 2022; however, it is now expected to be completed by November-December 2022.
